The Administration for Children and Families (ACF), Office of Planning, Research, and Evaluation (OPRE) anticipates soliciting applications for Behavioral Interventions Scholars awards to support dissertation research by advanced graduate students who are using approaches grounded in behavioral science or behavioral economics to examine research questions of relevance to social services programs and policies. These awards are meant to build capacity in the research field to apply a behavioral science or behavioral economics lens to issues facing families with low incomes in the United States, and to foster faculty mentorship of high-quality doctoral students. Applicants are required to demonstrate how their research is grounded in behavioral economics/behavioral science and the applicability of their research to practices or policies serving children, adults, and families with low incomes, especially those that seek to improve their well-being. For information about OPRE, please go to https://www.acf.hhs.gov/opre.

The purpose of this funding opportunity is to establish, by cooperative agreement, a National Child Welfare Center for Court Innovation and Advancement (CCIA). The CCIA will serve as the technical assistance (TA) provider to State and Tribal Court Improvement Programs (CIPs and TCIPs respectively). The CCIA will also provide TA to continuously improve and promote high quality legal representation for parents, children, and the child welfare agency, including around prevention and at all stages of child welfare proceedings as well as improve the quality of dependency hearings and reviews.The CCIA will be the Childrens Bureaus (CB) principal TA provider to CIPs, TCIPs and the broader child welfare legal and judicial community. The CCIA will build the capacity of TA recipients to meet current and future standards and requirements described in statute and federal regulations (including those specified under titles IV-B and IV-E of the Social Security Act), improve organizational and system performance, and improve outcomes for children, youth, and families. In addition, the CCIA will be responsible for increasing the knowledge, skills, capacity, and resources of child welfare legal professionals.

This funding opportunity announcement (FOA) invites research projects that seek to explain the underlying mechanisms, processes, and trajectories of social relationships and how these factors affect outcomes in human health, illness, recovery, and overall wellbeing. Types of projects submitted under this FOA include mechanistic studies that are classified as clinical trials. Mechanistic studies are defined as studies with the objective to understand the mechanism(s) of action of an intervention, a biological or behavioral process, or the pathophysiology of a disease/condition. See NOT-AT-20-001 and NOT-MH-19-006 for examples of clinical trials that are/are not considered mechanistic studies. Clinical trials that propose to influence a clinical outcome, test safety or feasibility of an intervention, demonstrate the clinical efficacy or effectiveness of an intervention, or analyze the effect size of an intervention on clinical outcomes are ineligible for this FOA. Types of studies that should submit under this FOA include clinical trials that assess biomedical or behavioral outcomes in humans for the purpose of understanding the fundamental aspects of phenomena without specific application towards processes or products in mind. Researchers proposing basic science experimental studies involving human participants should consider this FOAs companion for basic experimental studies with humans, TEMP-14931, Research on Health, Wellbeing, Illness, and Recovery (R01 Basic Experimental Studies with Humans Required). Applications proposing studies that include, but are not limited to, model animal research or observational studies involving humans should submit under the companion FOA, TEMP-14934, "Research on Biopsychosocial Factors of Social Connectedness and Isolation on Health, Wellbeing, Illness, and Recovery (R01 Clinical Trials Not Allowed).

This funding opportunity announcement (FOA) invites research projects that seek to explain the underlying mechanisms, processes, and trajectories of social relationships and how these factors affect outcomes in human health, illness, recovery, and overall wellbeing. Types of projects submitted under this FOA include studies that prospectively assign human participants to conditions (i.e., experimentally manipulate independent variables) and that assess biomedical and/or behavioral outcomes in humans to understand fundamental aspects of phenomena related to social connectedness and isolatedness. NIH considers such studies as prospective basic science studies involving human participants that meet the NIH definition of basic research and fall within the NIH definition of clinical trials (see, e.g., NOT-OD-19-024) Types of studies that should submit under this FOA include studies that prospectively assign human participants to conditions (i.e., experimentally manipulate independent variables) and that assess biomedical or behavioral outcomes in humans for the purpose of understanding the fundamental aspects of phenomena without specific application towards processes or products in mind.
